Last night I powered off my PC and the following morning I tried to turn it back on. It didn’t display anything and now it’s booting up with VGA lights on the motherboard. I tested the graphics card by trying various PCIe slots and swapping in another one, then putting it in a different system—it worked fine. So it seems the issue isn’t with the VGA or graphics card itself. I’m not sure if even with a failed SSD it would still boot into BIOS, but I need advice. All fans spin in RGB mode and GPU fans operate normally, but there’s no IGUI to test.

Looking at the details, do you know if the monitor supports another display source on the same port? I noticed a case where a port failure caused issues. Also, does your system start using only the built-in graphics when no external display is connected?

No internal screens and yes, I’m using three monitors. I discovered there’s a large scorch mark on the back, which suggests a short circuit occurred.
